Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded).

This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

RPGnet... BWAHAHAHAHAH! I don't DARE post there - they'd be TOO easy to troll!
In fact, here are their mods in a nutshell:


And I say it's better to keep the nutters in their shells anyway! (Would hate for them to leave the safety of the safe-space they created for themselves!)
And to whomever stated this place is the asshole/sewer of the internet...
"GET THEE TO THE CHANS AND DESPAIR!!!!  FOR ALL WHO ENTER SHALL NEVER FAP AGAIN!!!" ;D




well, at least not to normal shit

I would pity them, but they're so self-righteous and obnoxious I'd rather chase them down the street, hitting them with a shoe.
Now I'm seeing your avatar as an angry old lady with her hair in a bun.
Now that's funny. :D

But now, the latest thing is that you're not allowed to criticize the female mods on TBP. Because that's 'Holdoing'.

I'm pausing to try and... y'know, comprehend that. Naming perceived sexist criticism after a Star Wars character who was practically a political appointee and whose competence was HIGHLY questionable at the very best. I mean, Poe's Law is over there in the corner sobbing into his whiskey.

I don't even think you're allowed to criticise the sequels at all now. Saw somebody, who I think's a prominent poster, get a three day ban for 'negativity' after criticising them in a Star Wars thread. Presumably criticism of it is a heckin sexist dogwhistlerino among literal nazis.

Criticizing ANYTHING runs the risk of being flagged as 'threadcrapping' or 'edition/sequel warring' and getting you booted from the thread.

Which is fucking bizarre. I can comprehend 'keep it constructive and keep it clean'. But the slightest sign of discordant thought, and the mods swing into action with the banhammers.

It no longer surprises me that they ran interference for (until they couldn't deny it) a known sexual offender.

Then I once spoke about how "murder capitalism" seemed a stretch, and a commie harassed me for such talk. Then I pointed out the fact that some 150 million (conservative estimate) persons have died under communist regimes in the 20th C. I was permabanned. I am proud of it now. I tended to never go into those open forums, but my one word-sin was sufficient to be "cancelled." I sent along a note to admins. It did start, "Dear Komrade..."
In what decade did this happen? Because I got banned over just putting Castro in a list of celebrities that died in 2016.

Most of the mentally ill mods who frequent that place would never survive let alone allowed back to play at most real world tables. Outside of their regressive and repressive forum none of them can do much in the way to really censure anyone or everyone.

My permanent ban was accomplished in 2020.

They banned me for being the wrong kind of leftie. The place is a joke and the banning of any dissenting opinion or anything outside of their current version of orthodoxy has seriously slowed down the posting of interesting stuff.

The infractions forum is publically visible and a good laugh.

It's the self-certainty that I don't understand, not the politlcs.  Have they never heard of confirmation bias?

I just can't imagine being so certain that I'm that my interpretation of anything is that correct.

They're not.  That's why they can't stand any dissent.  If you are secure in your beliefs, you are not afraid of disagreement.  That's the forge of solid opinions.  They are ideologues, so they have no desire to test their opinions against reality.  They expect reality to conform to their beliefs...

They just gave Wakazashi a seven day ban for asking how people would treat the colonialism in a Brave Starr reboot.

You know, back when Redredderredest said, "you can't ban us all", well, I can't but help think they're trying pretty hard at this point.

I think Orwell was spot on when he discussed the destruction of words as a tool of authoritarian control.  There's a whole thread on Tangency about rethinking geek speak.  I think what they're missing is that they've gotten old and now, like the mothers who were frothing at the mouth about satanism in the eighties, they're frothing in a panic over stuff.

I think Orwell was... well, not wrong, but off a little bit.  I think that the left sees itself is a state of perpetual revolution, even though they have power they don't have POWAH, so they are still revolutionaries fighting 'the man', whomever that is.

Its more than that.

As I have noted many a time. This nuttery is cyclic. And one of the recurring elements is that the new "visionaries" here to "help" us poor oppresededed peoples just about every time point at the prior iteration as bad and wrong and all that jazz. And then the next iteration does it to them. Rinse repeat every 20 years.

Come 2030 the next gen of political correctness cults and moral outrage brigades will point at this 2010 batch and decry them as fools at best and monsters at worst sowing the seeds of distrust and furthering segregation and now the NEW saviors of you oppressededed peoples will make it all right.

You're not exaggerating.  Most if not all the mods have posted that they suffer from severe mental illnesses.  I came back to the forum after years away from the hobby and was sickened by what it's devolved into.  It wasn't like that before.  Basically a gang of mental defectives have high jacked the most prominent forum in the hobby.

Wakshaani's ban is particularly disgusting as it was hardly offensive.

Stating 'Hey, there's a lot here to unpack, how do we handle this?' isn't particularly obnoxious. Heck, it's downright level-headed. Even if he was falling on what I might say is the 'wrong' side of the argument, I'd at least hear him out because his approach is actually pretty damn reasonable.

So of course they whack him with a seven day, PLUS 'we'll be discussing backstage if it'll be longer'.

Jesus Christ, why would anyone post on TBP at this point if you perpetually run the risk of getting kicked off for wrong think?
